Trying To Reform Government Is Largely a Waste of Time

Steve Greenhut reports:

Government has no bottom line, no customers and cannot be run like a business. Government operates by force and as a result doesn’t care how unhappy the public is with its services. You don’t like the IRS or local cops, what are you going to do about it? Any business with that attitude would, in the adapted words of Monty Python, be an "ex-business" because no one would go there. Government only has to take your taxes.

An article worth reading twice.
